‘You’re a Human Rights Person, You Just Don’t Know It Yet’ – TEDx

In March of 2023, HRMI co-founder and Research Methodology and Design Lead, K Chad Clay spoke to the TEDxUGA crowd in Georgia about human rights.

«The truth is, most of us would never notice that our rights aren’t guaranteed unless we find ourselves in the unfortunate position of having those rights violated or lacking access to the benefits provided by rights.»

Listen to Chad explain why we need to use human rights to drive our decisions:

«My vision and now, I hope, our shared vision, is that a human rights-focused society would produce a world where countries compete with one another, not just to have the largest economy or the biggest military, but to see who can treat people the best.»
